Valorant Patch Notes March 28, 2023

The following changes were made in the 6.06 update:

Gekko

Mosh Pit (C)
- Mosh Pit’s damage to objects has been performing inconsistently with relative abilities such as KAY/O’s FRAG/ment (C) and Breach’s Aftershock (C).
  - Damage to objects has been reduced 2.5x >>> 1x
Wingman (Q)
- Wingman will now always die if he is last alive.

LOTUS

Updated the destruction VFX for the destructible door located between A Link to A Main in order to make it easier to see through as it falls away.

Added the ability to hide Agent outlines and fresnel (the color outline on Agents)
- Go to Settings >> General >> Under “Other”, there is an option to toggle “Hide Outlines and Fresnel”.

Agents

Gameplay Systems

Fixed a bug where loading into a match resulted in an incorrect view of under the map.

Social

Fixed a bug preventing you from sending a whisper starting with a Circumflex Accent ^. You can now whisper cute emoticon faces to each other using ^w^.
Fixed a bug causing ping icons to be displayed even when someone was muted. Muting someone will now properly suppress ping icons.
Fixed a bug where the voice chat UI was obscured when your Agent was blinded. You can now see, even when your Agent can’t.
Fixed a bug where the join party button would still be active even though the party invite was no longer valid.
Fixed a bug where when searching your friends list, the number of people a friend is in a party with would not display correctly.
Fixed a bug where scrolling the social panel would sometimes scroll other UI elements like the Agent carousel.
Fixed a bug where the friends list was obscured when auto-reject friend requests was enabled.

Many of these changes were minor other than the changes to Gekko, which slightly nerfs him.
